Where the fuck did you hear that?

We've had this thread countless times and crunkcore is always the winner.

It's objectively a genre with absolutely no redeeming qualities.

In all seriousness it's crunkcore like brokencyde. It offers even less that noise and shit hop

i think someone was trying to force jungle being the worst genre as a meme a few months back

nah metal's pretty bad but you'd have to be lying to yourself when you say metal's worse than hiphop.

there are these cool crust black doom harsh noise type bands that redeemed metal for me. to me, good metal needs to have a little psychedelia going on

Let's go with an objective list.
Worst genre =/= genres you don't like

1. Crunkcore
2. Glam Metal
3. Visual Kei

you mean seriously?
"Post-Dubstep"

>>53519626
midwest emo is a close second though

those are like the two least interesting subgenres of metal.
even power metal can be kind of entertaining i guess

Well you do have to consider what the intention behind the music is. It's almost exclusively just hard dance music, it serves no other purpose, and it doesn't take itself too seriously.

To really answer this question you'd have to take into consideration more things than just the quality of the music. How it's perceived, appreciated, and fittingly judged in our culture.

I mentioned techno and house earlier because it's just hilarious how the artists actually think they're making any worthwhile art, or think their opinions on the subject of music matter in the first place.
You see a boiler room set on yt and the comments are filled with pseudo-elitist manchildren who bring up Justin Bieber every time someone mentions they don't like the music, like we're back in 2010.
More or less worse than edm or any other dance genre i could think of
>>
>>53520146
The worst part is, you can tell by the way they write their songs, they think they're hot shit and flaunt their faux-classical influence as if it means something.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6c3-9eFci6I
>>
>>53520258
Well, in Japan they're hot shit. Of course it wouldn't fly anywhere else than in Japan, but in Japan visual kei artists are almost worshiped similar to how teenagers worship thrash metal.
>>
>>53520329
>it wouldn't fly anywhere else

It's spread into Russia, m8, and the worst part judging on this video, this russian band must be popular if it has this big of a budget.

my weeb girlfriend dragged me to japan for a vacation even though I barely wanted to go.

she took me to a concert and I didn't even know what the fuck it was.

It was some shitty visual kei band and the hilarious part was, it was crowded. Not just teenagers but also fully grown adults, old people, families. You obviously had the fucking beta nerds in the front dressed like animu characters but it was so fucking contradictory. Shitty band playing pretentious symphonic power metal, yet the area was filled to the fucking rim with people who looked almost completely normal.

>>53520588
It started as straight hair metal. I wish I could remember the old bands but they all sound and look like ratt and cinderella. Then it became what the name implies, a visual subculture all about the look. Now it's more or less dying as a thing. All the bands really pulled back their image and some that would have been visual kei just dress like people.
